Upon Jesus, the Rock of our salvation, we place our trust. We can trust Him because we know that His love for us is greater than that for His own life. he walked on this earth so that He might experience the struggles of man in order to help us overcome them, and then gave up His life for us that we might have eternal life.
We have forsaken, insulted, and rebelled against God. He has followed us with mercies, reproofs, and expostulations, and yet we persist in iniquity. As a moral Governor, He must punish sin in His dominions. He is holy, and hates iniquity. His nature and His office both require that transgression be punished. He saw men ruined and lost, yet He pitied them. He provided a mode of reconciliation by the life and death of His Son. Jesus Christ is the Reconciler. He is fit for this work. He has the nature of God, and so can appear with honor before the heavenly Majesty. He has the nature of man, and is by experience acquainted with all our natural infirmities.He knows what temptation and sorrow and death are.
Only worship should come forth from our mouths for He is the only one worthy of our praise. How great of a God do we serve! How magnificent is our God! We pray that the love of God would abound in your life daily that you may know His passionate love and desire for us to spend eternity with Him.
